Chapter 1708: Retaliation II

The judge became furious the moment Sam spoke like that.

After all, even though he is not the strongest of the bunch, he became a judge because of a reason. He is a person three generations ahead of Sam.

He is one of the oldest people of the clan. For Sam to call them scoundrels to their faces, it is an extreme act of disrespect.

"How dare you talk to me like that? You fucking bastard.

We should have kicked you out the moment your father is dead. A fatherless bastard is indeed rude, without any manners or character. That slut of a mother must have been the reason that you became like this."

Everyone in the room turned dead silent.

Even Blaine looked at the judge in shock. He didn't expect the judge to speak out like this.

Captains and Vice captains looked at the judge with their eyes widened in surprise. The people who were groaning on the ground also couldn't help but hold their groans in their throats.

Sam coldly looked at the Judge.

His aura changed. The killing intent coming from his body is beyond reason or measure.

He dragged his body with the help of his arms as he slowly moved towards the platform in the front.

No one spoke for a short while. Even the Judge realized in this time frame that what he said might have crossed a line.

He has been a judge for far too long. He is even two generations older than the current Clan head.

He was respected very much by everyone in the clan. It seems like it has gotten to his head and he stayed on the top for far too long.

He has spoke whatever he wanted all this while and nobody bothered to object to him. So, as soon as Sam said that one word, he couldn't hold himself back and just spoke whatever he thought out loud.

Only when he felt Sam's or rather Brice's killing intent did he realize what kind of blunder he has done.

He remembered some previous cases that Brice was involved in.

Brice was not the goody two shoes. Even though his reputation is such outside the clan since he was known to go above and beyond for the sake of the clan, within the clan's internal circle, his reputation is shit.

He is known to be polite and calm in most cases, except for one. Any case that is related to his mother.

Anyone that ever shamed his mother was all taught a lesson by him. He broke their limbs, he bashed the skulls of his peers, and he even went as far as rip the crotch off of one of his elders when they tried something funny with his mother.

And in every one of those cases, Brice was summoned to the Judgement hall and this Judge presided over a bunch of those.

Whenever he saw the victim, he couldn't help but feel sorry for them, no matter what kind of crime they committed. Brice was that brutal.

Now that he remembered all of them and also his cultivation level which was lower than Brice's by a notch, he understood that things are not going to be easy for him.

As Sam slowly dragged himself to the platform, Blaine just stayed silent.

He didn't speak, he didn't stop and he didn't even show any other reaction after that initial shock.

And Sam himself looked through the thoughts of Brice. The memories that haunted the owner of his body went through Sam's mind.

Sam's own anger is enough for him to react crazily when someone commented about him like this. And merging with Brice's thoughts, his anger is overflowing.

He is rageful.

Before he knew it, his brain is clouded with desire for venegeance. He doesn't want anything other than killing the old man that spoke out loud like that.

"What are you doing? Go back and stand in your spot. You are going through a trial."

The Judge screamed once again.

"No, my trial is on a break for now. Whatever happens now is your trial. Get ready for it."

As he spoke, Sam pushed the ground with his arms and leaped on to the stairs.

"Guards, guards. Everyone stop him. Stop him from coming up. It is a direct order."

The judge screamed.

The guards who went out, came back in. the captains and vice captains who were standing on the side all made a move together.

They decided to stop Brice or rather Sam so that things won't go to the point of no return.

If a judge dies here, things wouldn't go down well with some simple trials and punishments.

Heads will roll. The whole military structure of the clan will be shaken and they are in the middle of a war on top of that. There is no way, they would be able to handle all of this.

So, they all made a move to stop Sam.

Sam didn't even turn back and just moved forward. As he climbed one stair after another, the nearest captian already reached him and tried to grab a hold of him from the rear.

He learned from the guard who got his crotch crushed. So, he kept a distance.

"Captain Brice, please calm down. We can resolve this issue later. We are in a middle of a war. We cannot have this kind of issue at our hands."

He tried to reason with Sam.

But of course, it didn't work.

Sam caught hold of the man's arm and started crushing it with brute force.

In response, the man frowned and groaned. His arm glowed with orange flames and he tried to escape Sam's grip.

Sam on the other hand didn't care if his arm is burning.

He forcefully pulled the arm forward and threw the captain over his shoulder. The throw was done to a side and the head of the captain crashed into the ground below the stairs.

The other vice captains also made their move. They didn't dare to attack Sam with some fatal moves, al they could do is either get close to him and tried to stop him with physical force or attack him with long range and elements just enough to wear him down.

But everyone that came close to Sam was unable to stop him. He broke their hands, crushed their ribs, and whenever he was in a bind, he forcefully got out of it, even at the cost of hurting himself.

The old judge was stunned at the rapid turn of events. Within two minutes so many things happened. Nobody expected Brice to be that strong. And nobody expected how reckless he is. He took a bunch of attacks that came at him without caring. He dodged them barely enough to not attack himself.

He reached the top of the platform. Blaine stood up and looked at Sam.

But there is no reaction from him.

Sam turned to look at the old judge.

There is not much space between them. He slammed his fists on the platform and leaped into the air. The impact launched him high into the air.

The old man raised his land and blue lightning was thrown at Sam.

Sam wasn't able to maneuver himself much in mid-air, and the energy shield is something he cannot use.

He just let the lightning hit him. But instead of just crashing down from the impact, his body conducted the lightning and let it pass through him. The fusion of lightning elements at the last moment, he was able to reduce the impact, even though it hurt him a lot.

He fell right at the old man. He caught hold of the old man by his collar and punched him on the neck with his other hand from the side.

The old man gasped for air.

"Leave me. Get off me. You bastard."

The old man tried to pull Sam away.

One of the captains reached the platform and tried to do the same.

When other judges were about to interfere, Blaine gestured for them to stop.

The captain tried to pull Sam off of the judge, while another captain reached out to the rear of the old man and tried to pull him away from that side.

Sam didn't want to lose his grip, he used his second arm also and caught hold of the old man tightly.

And when the force pulling him off increased, he used the spiritual energy at his fingertips to dig into the flesh of the old man. He kept a hold of the old man tightly.

Sam was being constantly pulled off, but all it did is tear the flesh off of the old man bit by bit.

The only good thing is that he wasn't able to attack the old man actively. But when the force increased and his grip was reduced by a lot, Sam couldn't hold back and bit the old man on the neck.
